The wind beneath my wings!

Spring has been blown in on a typical gale force wind. It knocks the wheel barrow over and sets the straw and debris to blowing all over the place.





I had a helper for the chicken coop cleaning. This keeps up and my little grandson could become quite useful since all the other chicks have fled the coop and my dear Rooster has bigger and better nest eggs to search for. But now 'he who crows' is home and he has bigger and noisier toys then I do so Josh's off to ride shot gun on the tractor.






That leaves me with the wheel barrow and the flowerbeds. I have served warning that any more chickens remodel my flower beds and there'll be new feather pillows and chicken soup simmering.






Monday I shall have the feathers flying up here in the Coop and Saucer Playroom. I have major fabric related deadlines looming in these next few weeks.

Now I have to go back to the quilt show and see if I can find your quilt. But as I have a b'day party for a special three year old today, is there any chance you can post picture of it.

Sweet Elle...you are so right about it being about people and not things. Sometimes I feel trite when "things" get in my way.
Thank you for your comment..it made me smile..for I agree completely.

I think everyone has regrets for lost treasures of the past...and often times people. I guess that's just life.

What GREAT space you have...
I giggled at the "feather pillow and chicken soup" remark! That should certainly get someones attention!! :)
Hugs,
Mona

I love this post. How simple life seems until we have to do the work involved to make it LOOK so simple. Your place is wonderful. Happy creating in your coop today...
